This is a mototcycle ride & fundraiser for the "Nathan J Vacho Medical Scholarship Fund" and Monetary Support to the LHS Healthcare Academy.

The Breakfast is at 8:30 till 11:00
The Ride itself Starts at 11:00 and should end around 4:00.
There is a Lucheon from 3:00 till 5:30 and the Cost for this is $7.00/ person.

After the Raffles there will be a Live Band (Carmadillo) Playing everything from Bob Dylan to Twisted Sister from 7:00 till 11:00p.m.

We would love to see everyone there. It's a great time, a Great Cause, and Great People.

I will definitly be on this.

Hmmm, $17.00 plus gas for a day of fun for a good cause?

Maybe we could get a line of Foci to follow the bikes. I'd probably be up for it.

Possibly count me in as well.

Around April, I'll start getting names together, so I can send it off to my buddy (who helps run the ride) and give him a list of all who are going.
It really is a great time. Lots of troops that go, great guys, and for an amesome cause. I never met SSG Vacho, but I've heard a lot from people who HAVE met him. He was truly a wonderful guy, and if MNFocus can join, that I believe we will turn a LOT of heads.

I did also post this on the MNMazda forum too. Hopefully we can have a fun day.

Hmm....this should make a nice debut for the SVTs new look this spring as well.

Well if things work out the next couple months, I'll have a few things lined up myself.
I know for sure this years christmas I WILL be buying something to make her fast.
Army wanted me to stay for 6 more years so they gave me a $15,000 bonus... minus taxes of course. I get that this December.... big stuff gonna happen then. lol.

Well, I did some quick googlemaps stuff and found out that from st. Paul, ladysmith is 123miles and aprox a 3hr drive. The ride starts in ladysmith and is aprox 100miles round back to ladysmith. So if you are planning on attending, prepare for a long day. Lol

Just a to see if anyone is still planning on attending. It is just under a month away, and I was to let them know how many are planning on attending so we can show off.
Let me know!

Bump, this is Next Saturday. Anyone planning on joining?

I'd like to but I doubt it'll happen
